Krug Collection 1996 reveals outstanding grace and elegance, enhanced by decades on the lees that have developed rich flavours and an unctuous texture. This Champagne is an ideal match for a broad palette of gastronomic dishes such as a white or black truffle soufflé and delicate fish in a lemon cream sauce.

It also pairs beautifully with simple pleasures like crustaceans with mango salsa and lemongrass, as well as a classic crêpe Suzette.

Krug Collection 1996 reveals a deep golden yellow colour.

On the nose, toasted notes intertwine with aromas of coffee and chicory, lifted by nuances of candied fruits, quince paste, and a delicate touch of smoke.

On the palate, the wine is balanced and complex, expressing lemon in all its forms—fresh, candied, in meringue pie, and as limoncello—creating a layered and harmonious tasting experience.
